Dubas created a pond hockey team. Columbus and Carolina play a style that wins. We play a style that looks good in the regular season but gets shut down in the playoffs.
This team has no heart. Need Kadri back. Too much money tied to no shows.
That was bad, really bad.
No excuses here.
Also Marner should be benched for that performance.
Great post.Shit game. Matthews line was stymied and Tavares and Marner were invisible. Andersen made plenty of good saves but in typical playoff fashion for him he let in a soft goal at a bad time, right after a dominant shift to start the third by the Matthews line.
Columbus played us heavy all night and they didn’t let much through. Leafs need to fight for it or they’ll find themselves out in a hurry.
I opine if you only give up one goal, and your team is built as an offensive juggernaut, that should be good enough for a win anytime. No blame on Freddy.Started out great in the 3rd period, hemmed them, then Freddy lets in a weak goal. You can't be an elite goalie and let goals like that in. He can save all those amazing saves, but if you let weak ones like that in those saves are meaningless.
Understandable but you still have to have the belief you can get back in it and the will to try like hell regardlessI don’t blame them. The way this game went, I thought it was over too. They couldn’t create anything
